About the role

As a Systems Engineering Intern in robotics, you will help ensure that hardware, software, kinematics, and AI framework models operate together effectively and efficiently across the overall system.

What you'll do

• Use industry-standard tools to perform integrated design and simulation, validating interactions between AI models and robotic systems before hardware deployment.
• Calibrate and integrate vision, touch sensors, and motor-control systems to improve system perception and environmental awareness.
• Define system requirements and architecture, including data flow between compute platforms, sensors, motors, and neural-network controllers.
• Prototype and conduct hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing to validate real-world system behavior and performance.
• Perform all activities in a safe manner supporting Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements.

What you'll need

• Currently enrolled as at least a sophomore pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field through an accredited degree program.
• Minimum overall GPA of 3.0 in good academic standing.
• English fluency (written and verbal).
• Ability to work at least 40 hours per week during the internship.

Nice to have

• Prior related internship or co-op experience.
• Robotics frameworks including ROS2 and tools such as MoveIt and Drake.
• Programming experience in Python and C/C++.
• Experience with AI/ML frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow, reinforcement learning, or computer vision.
• Experience with SysML, MATLAB/Simulink, or Docker.
• Knowledge of real-time motor control, RTOS, or embedded systems.

Skills: ROS2, HIL, motor control, sensors, SysML, MATLAB/Simulink
